An article on the front page in the January 16, 2011, issue of The Dallas Morning News by Brendan Case “Longtime Workers Struggle with Long-term Joblessness” describes a number of situations in which professionals have been laid off from relatively highly compensated jobs after years of service to an organization. These situations are heartfelt, and these individuals are having a difficult time replacing their income with similar positions.
I am thinking that perhaps these individuals should consider moving from seeking professional employment to seeking trade and craft base positions. For example, I found this ad with only a cursory search using Google:
Schneider has 2,000 immediate openings for Over-the-Road drivers in multiple areas of the country.
I recognize that changing careers and vocations is not easy; however, when it is rainy and stormy perhaps you should not spend a great deal of time seeking a specific type of shelter.
Please share your ideas about changing your job focus with other readers of this blog.
Thanks! Glyn
